Pros and cons
Ledgo CRM
- Per-company pricing covers 5 to 100 users on a single plan, making it significantly cheaper than per-seat rivals for teams of 10 or more.
- Built-in WhatsApp inbox (using the team's own number), live chat, Telegram, and other channels are included at every tier, not sold as add-ons.
- Quotes, online signing, and numbered invoices are native to the platform, removing the need for a separate quoting tool.
- The AI assistant (Ledgo Assist), REST API, webhooks, and custom roles are all locked to the Business tier at $199/month; a Professional-tier team at $99/month gets none of these, which is a significant gap between the two most common paid tiers.
- The Starter plan caps contacts at 5,000, pipelines at 2, inbox channels at 2, and automation rules at 5, which a modestly active sales team can outgrow quickly without an obvious mid-point before the $99 Professional plan.
- No evidence of native integrations with major third-party CRMs, ERPs, or marketing platforms beyond the built-in channels; teams that need Salesforce or HubSpot data sync will need to build against the API, which itself requires Business or Enterprise.
Pipp
- Core inbox is free forever with no published seat limit, making it genuinely usable for a small team at zero cost.
- Builder-first roadmap: API and MCP agent connections are explicitly planned, which is rare among shared inbox tools at this price point.
- AI assistance is opt-in and does not route customer emails to an AI provider until access is explicitly approved, a privacy-conscious design choice.
- The 100 recipient-delivery-per-day beta cap is a hard operational limit with no self-serve way to raise it; a team emailing more than a few dozen customers daily will hit it fast.
- AI pricing after beta is completely unspecified: the site says only 'fairly priced afterward,' which makes it impossible to budget for the feature that differentiates Pipp from a plain shared mailbox.
- Email is the only supported channel right now, and the product is in open beta with no published timeline for chat support or the API and MCP integrations that are central to its pitch.
Our verdict
Ledgo CRM verdict
Ledgo CRM is the clearest fit for small and mid-size sales teams that live in WhatsApp and need one place to track every lead, conversation, and follow-up without paying per seat. Its flat per-company pricing undercuts per-user rivals sharply, but the AI assistant and API access are locked behind the $199/month Business tier, which is a real jump from the $99 Professional plan. Teams that need deep reporting or native integrations with Salesforce or HubSpot should look at ClearCRM instead.

Pipp is the right pick for a founder or tiny dev team that wants a shared support inbox without paying anything or configuring a complex tool. The AI assistance is still gated behind a waitlist and its future pricing is unspecified, which makes it hard to plan around. Teams that need reporting, SLAs, or more than 100 outbound recipient deliveries per day should look at Maxdesk instead.
